Hi Bruce Is there anything of significance in item 6 - there is some thought that this might relate to a Consumer Constituency - something we are working on but are not ready for just yet..... There was some discussion in Seoul about a Consumer Constituency which had its origin in ALAC but there's been no progress that I'm aware of - apart from me taking time in Brussels yesterday (here on other business) to meet with BEUC (accompanied by ICANNite Nick Ashton Hart) to explore how we might attract the EU consumer voice into ICANN processes. I'd be grateful for any feedback you can give me....about whether I should panic (as suggested by some)...or not We are making good progress in NCSG admin at this stage...working towards being set up to support Interest Groups and Constituencies on the non-commercial side Hope I'm not causing any angst with this query - still finding my way Cheers Rosemary -----Original Message----- From: owner-council@gnso.icann.org [mailto:owner-council@gnso.icann.org] On Behalf Of Bruce Tonkin Sent: Thursday, 3 December 2009 2:31 PM To: council@gnso.icann.org Subject: [council] ICANN Board meeting agenda - 9 Dec 2009 Hello All, From: http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/agenda-09dec09.htm The Board meeting agenda is: Consent Agenda ============== 1.
